I Love...This Concept

I want to find some and distribute them amongest the local hippies.
But seriously, how amusing is the picture? It's like they're using Jesus to sell their product.
It might have come in handy during all that walking He and the 12 Disciples did.

Magdelena carries the attitude and style similar to that of Lisa Fonssagrives, Dovima, and other faces of the 1950's. Very classic.

Broken Glass

I got broken glass in my mouth
Cutting up my tongue
Can't speak no more
Not like
You'd let me speak

Duct-taped lips
Bound to hurt
When it gets ripped off
For a quick kiss

I got broken glass in my mouth
Shredding up my cheeks
Sliding down my throat
Making lots of noise
As it goes

Can't speak no more
Not sure you want to hear
What i got to say, anyway
Better strut on away
Spitting blood
Onto the street

Can't breathe no more
'Cos I got that broken glass down my throat
Chokin' me
Killin' me
But it's alright
Yeah, it's alright

[Note: This isn't meant to be 'emo' or 'morbid' or 'goth'. I just got inspired after smashing a bottle and by a cocktail of some of my favorite images and songs]

Well This Is Amusing

[Rolling Stone, cover shot by Terry Richardson]
According to Rolling Stone, Gossip Girl, starring the two untalented ladies pictured above, is the most "culturally relevant show on television". Really? Because, after watching about half a season, I saw little that is relevant. Interesting, yes, dramatic, yes. Relevant? Not particularly. If there is a problem, it's blow out of proportion and carried out through many episodes. Get over it. It's too dramatic for it's own good.

[Cassie and a friend from Skins]
On the other hand, Skins, the British superior version of Gossip Girl, kicks mean ass.
It is more relevant, if not the most relevant show on any show across America and Europe.
The characters get in major shit that they solve it themselves, not mum or dad and their big bucks. The situations are more real for kids that don't live in big apartment buildings and live in normal houses; kids who wear H&M, not Valentino.
And it did win a BAFTA, just throwing that out there.


I also have huge issues with Little Jenny, but I digress for now.

Listen.

Ms. Pierre


Today I rushed home
To find that
The eggs were crushed
The meat was rotten
And the bread stale.

I took it all to Ms. Pierre
And she said to me
That you cannot bring back
That which is spoiled
Dead and rotten it shall remain.

Use it, though,
She did advise,
To fertilize your spring flowers
Make them strong and healthy
And to bloom in beauty
Never lasting.
The circle of love
A ring of roses
Tipped with thorns
Shall always start again
So do not worry
Over spoiled milk.

An Iron Maiden tee, really?
Rock isn't about tucking in your shirt and having your pants all nicely pressed and your denim jacket immaculate. It's not about bands or brands. It's about extremes, wearing the night on your pants, getting rips and patches and badges to mark where you've been. And it is most certainly about having everlasting bedhead, 'cos that's where you end up, anyway.
So to all those fashionista trying to be "Rock n Roll": You better know what the fuck you're getting into. Because the imitators are as easy to spot as a cover band.
